problem with attaching pdf in thunderbird on linux

I have Thunderbird 1.0.6 on Linux (Red Hat 9.0), and I've always had problems
when I send email with PDF attachments. If I add a PDF attachment, the email
always comes in like it's inline, and it's all garbled. Attaching the same
PDF on Thunderbird under Windows works fine. I've tried searching for this
problem, but have never come up with any solutions. Has anyone else had
this problem and have a solution? Currently, I have to zip up all PDF
files and then attach them.
